Föderation EN Di 10.12.2024 08:44:40 I have seen people go "that's wrong" to one response, and still take the next response at face value if it seems plausible. None of them would say they "trust" it to be correct. But see, they caught the mistake! So it's just a tool or whatever. As long as it gives an answer you're happy with. |

Föderation EN Di 10.12.2024 11:26:37 @mia I ask people if they "verify" AI answers. Most say "yes". I ask them how they verify. After some squirming, they say they check to see if it looks "reasonable". I doubt they actively do so often, but even if true, it's output built to look reasonable! Looking reasonable but being wrong is the failure point you are supposed to avoid through verification. I explain, they agree, but continue undaunted. It's frustrating to see so much effort expended to avoid using any critical thinking. |
